- 12:44What Is the Meaning of Identity When You’re Always the Minority? | Lahib Jaddo | TEDxTexas TechWhat does identity mean when you’ve never belonged to the majority? Born in Iraq to a Turkmen family, Lahib grew up navigating life as a minority — in Iraq, in Lebanon, and later in the United States. In this talk, she shares her journey across cultures and borders, reflecting on how identity is shaped, questioned, and ultimately redefined when you’re always the outsider. Lahib Jaddo is an Iraqi-born artist, architect, and educator whose work spans painting, sculpture, and storytelling. Born in Baghdad to a Turkmen family, she spent her formative years in Iraq and Lebanon before immigrating to the U.S., where she earned a Master of Architecture and a Master of Fine Arts from Texas Tech University. Jaddo's art explores themes of memory, displacement, and cultural identity, blending her Middle Eastern heritage with her deep connection to the American landscape. She has exhibited her work nationally and internationally and is the subject of the award-winning documentary Jaddoland.

- 16:02Hol dir dein Denken zurück: Freiheit beginnt im Kopf | Markus Bräuning | TEDxLandau„Ganz schön viel Meinung für so wenig Ahnung.“ Dieser Spruch beschreibt genau, wie schnell wir Pauschalaussagen übernehmen, statt selbst zu denken. Wir sind umgeben von schnellen Meinungen und lauten Vereinfachungen – aber wer denkt dabei eigentlich noch selbst? Markus Bräuning lädt ein, die eigene Urteilskraft wiederzuentdecken. Nicht als Pflicht, sondern als Spiel. Er zeigt, dass mehr Klarheit nicht nur im Kopf entsteht, sondern auch im Körper spürbar wird. Humorvoll, nahbar und mit klugen Fragen macht er deutlich, warum Selbstdenken manchmal unbequem ist, aber unsere größte Freiheit bedeutet. Markus Bräuning ist Geschäftsführer des Berufsbildungsseminar e.V., einem etablierten Bildungsträger, sowie systemischer Berater und Speaker. Schon früh träumte er davon, Seminare zur Persönlichkeitsentwicklung zu halten, glaubte jedoch lange selbst nicht daran. Heute lebt er genau diesen Traum.Auch seine Art, Führung zu gestalten, ist für ihn Wirklichkeit geworden: menschlich, klar und mit Haltung. In seinen Seminaren, Coachings und Vorträgen zeigt er, wie geistige Freiheit, Leichtigkeit und ein gestärktes Vertrauen in sich selbst gelingen können. Er ermutigt Menschen, ihre eigenen Möglichkeiten zu erkennen und das Leben mit mehr Mut und Freude aktiv zu gestalten.Markus weiß aus eigener Erfahrung, dass Wachstum nie linear verläuft: mal gelingt es mehr, mal weniger. Mit Humor, Tiefe und einer großen Portion Leichtigkeit lädt er ein, das Leben nicht nur abzuarbeiten, sondern wirklich zu erleben.
